It's just another word for "call out culture".
When a famous person says something controversial they will receive a massive amount of criticism. That will be seen as a direct attack and the famous person will never own to their mistake and just cry they're being cancelled.
Most of the time no one is really cancelled for real.
Sometimes someone will be investigated and might lose movie deals because productions don't want bad press. That has always happened and has never been cancel culture.
Ironically, the people who cry cancel culture will gain popularity, so in a sense it has become a way of skirting responsibilities and deflect the attention from the actual horrible things they said.

Kim: You mean J K Rowling? The one who made history writing HP? That's the best example of a victim of cancel culture you could think of?

Get the Somebody cancel this niggamug. A social media influencer that decides, on their own authority, to vocally call for the canceling of other people on social media, without actually waiting for a platform like Twitter to physically de-platform the said person.

Get the Cancel culture enforcermug. A technique in the new game for the Nintendo Wii: Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It's simliar to the jump grabs in Melee. There are multiple ways of doing it: While running, let go of the analog stick and press and shield for as little and one frame and press A. If you don't let go of the analog stick you'll get the full running grab. You can actually do with w/o letting of the analog stick but for that you have to shield for a bit longer. Probably 3-5 frames.

Get the Uno Cancel cardmug. Dumb whore "Their allowing themselves to be canceled."
Hym "Noooo... You're using boycotts and the threat of associate shunning as a means to deplatform the tranny. That's not 'them doing it to themselves' and, no, they don't need to apologize for shit you toothless old bitch. And that is exactly what it is. It's elitist gatekeeping from old frauds who ran out of ideas decades ago. I'm not what you are. All you have to do to get an LLC is take a test. I'm one of the greatest minds of all time. I will soon surpass Shakespeare. All this is just conservatives trying to re-assert ideological control over a population that tried to cast them aside. Now, instead of 1 ideological gun, there are 2."

Leftists "Bend to our will or be impoverished!!!"
👉😖👈
Theocrats "Act out some form of perennialist, collectivist dogma or be impoverished!!! Not that one!!! Pick a dogma of which I approve or be enslaved!!!"
